Dear Friends,
I'm writing this evening to share the unfortunate news that our beloved Harlan passed away this morning. He died peacefully at home with his dear wife Mara, and his youngest daughter Louisa by his side. In the days leading up to his passing he rested comfortably in his own bed and enjoyed the comapny and music provided by close loved ones.
Although modest, frugal and humble.. his passing will create a large void within the music community and the hearts of many.
It's been requested that no flowers be sent, please. Mara will be arranging a way for anyone wanting to send an offering, so that it may be directed to something more meaningful to Harlan. Details will follow.
There will be a gathering organized to celebrate his life. Details for this are also undetermined but will be sent out at the soonest opportunity. I'd like to share Harlan's perspective of this.. in his own words.. "Oh yes, the funeral... there will be none! ... you could maybe throw a lively, upbeat party or two. Lots of drinks and music and hilarity. My friends love to tell funny stories at my expense... with suitable lubrication for priming... Be sure to bring a tape recorder. Wish I could be there. Umm, maybe I will!" ~ Harlan
